Stephanie said...: Read Naomi Klein's book if you want to see the same sort of treatment of the "radical" right. I put it aside rather than buy into the demonization of the other side.; September 30, 2008 at 3:28:00 PM CDT
Michael said...: I've not read Klein's book nor would I be inclined to but it seems to me that the best refutation of demonization is to point out where it's wrong. Did you see anything in that piece that was false or misleading?; September 30, 2008 at 3:35:00 PM CDT
Stephanie said...: It lost me at "Yet no one to my knowledge has connected ALL the dots..." When one wants to see a demon, one can always connect dots to paint a demon.; September 30, 2008 at 3:44:00 PM CDT
Michael said...: It's too bad you didn't finish it before condemning it. It appears from that article that, among other close ties, Barry represented ACORN in cases that are directly relevant to the current mess. You might also spend a little time with the diagram.; September 30, 2008 at 4:20:00 PM CDT
